Pan Li looked at the two people who were whispering to each other and asked, "Why are you two talking about this?"
The students at the scene all laughed. Ye Ying felt a little embarrassed and immediately retracted her head and stood up straight.
"This is the first time I've seen someone so calm before the ranking is announced. You two have made all my nervousness disappear!" Pan Li couldn't help laughing.
The scene of announcing the first and second place winners should be very serious and tense. In the later stage of the program, the two students are often given a close-up shot to expand their nervous and dignified expressions of unwillingness to admit defeat, which brings the confrontation and tension to the highest point.
As a result, these two people are either looking at each other affectionately or whispering to each other in a sticky and sweet way. How can we edit them in post-production?
Pan Li finished complaining in his heart and continued to dutifully play the role of a tool person to announce the rankings: "Now, let's announce the votes for the first and second place."
"The second student received 20,408,475 votes in the voting round. He is——"
At this point, the atmosphere on the scene inevitably became tense. Both the 35 people who remained and the students who had been eliminated were extremely concerned about the result and held their breath unconsciously. They were all very curious, would He Xizhou maintain his dominance as always, or would Ye Ying create a miracle of a dark horse defeating the king?
"He Xizhou!"
The moment the name was announced, there was a burst of exclamations in the audience. Some students held their heads in shock, some shouted excitedly, and some checked with the students around them in disbelief, fearing that they had heard it wrong.
It's no wonder that everyone was so surprised, it was because He Xizhou gave everyone a very strong impression. He was considered a genius when he debuted, and he won championships in various competitions and even international competitions. He was an invincible legend among the younger generation.
But today, he was actually defeated, and the opponent was not even an opponent who could match him in all aspects, but a complete newcomer who had only appeared in front of the public for less than two months.
Shocked, yes. But as everyone looked at the young man who defeated the myth, they didn't seem that surprised.
He Xizhou is dazzling, but Ye Ying is equally dazzling.
He may not be as strong as He Xizhou, but the fact that he can draw so many people's attention to him in a short period of time and make so many people truly like him and go crazy for him is his most unique charm.
"At the same time, let us congratulate Ye Ying for winning first place in the popularity ranking, with a total of 20,539,857 votes!"
Warm applause rang out, and the vast majority of students were convinced by the result and applauded with smiles on their faces.
Amid the excitement, He Xizhou looked at Ye Ying and said, "Congratulations."
"I'm far behind you." Ye Ying said seriously, "Brother He, remember to catch up."
He Xizhou smiled.
"Of course." His smile looked inexplicably evil, and he said slowly, "I don't like being down there."
The rankings were announced, and the 35 students who successfully advanced to the next round stood in their respective positions. The media display screen lit up, and the next important step was the selection of songs for the second performance.
"This is everyone's last performance before the finals," Pan Li said. "Whether you want to maintain your ranking or make a comeback in the final round, this will be a very rare opportunity."
The students nodded involuntarily.
What is the most important thing in the talent show "Dream Plan"? Everyone will give two words without hesitation - stage. The truth that gold will always shine will never be outdated. Isn't Ye Ying the best example of someone who can break through the siege with strength?
He made his mark on the first stage, the contrast in the first public performance was stunning, and the second public performance became a hit... His "first place" was never based on luck, but was earned entirely by his own strength and performance!
Therefore, all the students were full of energy, and even those who ranked low did not give up. The final list of debutants was uncertain until the last minute of the final night.
So, just fight!
"For this performance, we have prepared a total of six pieces for you." Pan Li said, "To be able to come this far shows that everyone here is a real talented contestant, and both vocal music and dance have basically reached an excellent level; therefore, these six pieces are not focused on one or the other, vocal and dance are equally important and both are indispensable."
This was expected by the trainees. The boy band originally looked at comprehensive qualities, looks, singing and dancing, temperament, character, and mentality... Only when everything is top-notch can a truly top-notch boy band be created. Singing and dancing are the most basic professional abilities of boy band members. If they can't do this, how can they call themselves idols?
The title of idol cannot be achieved just by having a pretty face!
On the big screen, clips of the six performance songs began to play one by one. Although each song has both vocal and dance, the styles are different. Only by choosing the most suitable one can you fully display your strength, so all the students watched it very carefully and quickly analyzed it in their minds.
After the clips were played, the standees with the names of the six songs were placed. Pan Li said: "The principles of song selection are the same as the previous two times. The songs will be selected in order of rank from high to low. The student with the highest ranking for each song will be the default center. Except for "Night on the Moni River", which has a limit of five people, the other five songs have six people. Once the team is full, other students can no longer choose the song."
"Okay, everyone is familiar with the rules, let's start choosing songs now." Pan Li looked at Ye Ying, "Ye Ying, you're the first one."
The other students were so jealous. The first one to have the right to choose could be the center of any song in the performance. This right was really too enviable!
Ye Ying was a person who had strong opinions and never hesitated when it came to multiple-choice questions. He seemed to have made up his mind long ago, and after walking out of the queue, he went straight to a sign on the far left, on which was the name of the song: "Young Hero's Travel".
“He actually chose this song!!”
"Oh my god, I never thought..."
"For the last performance, he actually chose Chinese style! It feels a bit risky..."
"Maybe he wants to try a new style? I noticed that his stage style is different every time, he's really daring."
"I admire him a lot, but how should I put it? Chinese style is not very popular on stage..."
Influenced by the Korean wave in recent years, the aesthetic orientation of young people in China has also tended towards Japan and South Korea. Although the 5,000-year-old Chinese culture is profound and extensive, the more impetuous the era is, the fewer people are willing to calm down and take a look and listen to these historical memories.
Although ancient style songs are very popular in the market, there is a certain gap between them and popular styles when they are performed on stage. The audience may not be able to accept and adapt to them very well. Moreover, if there is not enough strength, it is difficult to present the unique beauty and charm of the ancient style.
In short, most of the students felt that it was too risky to choose such a song for the last performance. Rather than taking an unconventional approach, they still wanted to play it safe, so many of them just now prayed silently in their hearts, hoping that this song "Young Hero Travel" would be picked up by the people in front of them, and not be left for them at the end.
But who would have thought that the first person to choose it was Ye Ying who was ranked first! !
Pan Li also sighed: "I find that you are always trying to challenge and break through."
Ye Ying smiled and said, "Because trying new things is addictive."
When he said this, his eyes turned to He Xizhou in the queue. He Xizhou was also looking at him. When their eyes met, there was a tacit understanding in their eyes that only they understood.
"Okay, I hope you can bring new surprises to everyone this time." Pan Li nodded, and then said: "Second place winner He Xizhou, please choose your song."
Everyone looked at him curiously, wanting to know which team He Xizhou would join.
After all, hip-hop is He Xizhou's home turf, but He Xizhou didn't seem to have enough opportunities to perform during the show, so many people speculated that he would choose the song "Rapgod" and take back the crown that belongs to him in the most powerful and arrogant manner.
He Xizhou walked out.
Everyone's gaze changed from disbelief to near horror - that direction, that direction -
It’s his fucking “Young Hero’s Journey”!!
They thought that He Xizhou didn't see clearly, or that he was just joking, but that was not the case - under everyone's stare, He Xizhou walked up to Ye Ying without hesitation, high-fived him, and then calmly stood behind Ye Ying.
Students: “!!!”
"Brother He, are you still asleep?" Luo Zihui couldn't help but shout, "If you choose that one, you will lose your center position!!"
Will He Xizhou give up the center position to someone else one day? ? This is simply a fantasy! !
He Xizhou glanced at him and said, "Use your nonsense?"
Luo Zihui: “…”
Very good, he can still talk back to others, which means he is not possessed by any strange thing.
but……
"Why did you choose ancient style?" Wang Yiming was also shocked, "That thing doesn't suit you at all!"
The other students had the same idea. If Ye Ying had chosen "Young Hero's Journey", they would have understood, but why did He Xizhou? He didn't look like he was suitable for this style at all!
Pan Li also asked sincerely: "Why did you choose this song?"
He Xizhou glanced at Ye Ying and curled his lips: "I want to be in the same group with classmate Ye Ying."
Ye Ying looked back at him, not too surprised. Perhaps he had noticed it the moment their eyes met.
He felt an indescribable sense of relief and joy in his heart, and even a little excited. The reason was simple - he wanted to complete a stage with He Xizhou.
Let's stand together under the spotlight, try our best and present a perfect stage.
Pan Li suddenly smiled maliciously and said in a long voice: "I seem to remember someone said something during the first stage performance. Alas, I am too old to remember it clearly... Do you still remember it?"
He deliberately passed the microphone to the students, and everyone understood what he meant and shouted in unison:
"The head can be cut off, the blood can be shed, but the C position would rather die than give up the hand!!"
After shouting, the boys laughed crazily: "Brother He!! I didn't expect you to be here today!!"
He Xizhou was certain that no one would surpass him in this program on the initial stage and even uttered a classic quote. However, today's song selection was almost like undermining his own performance, and all the students were delighted. They guessed that this segment would definitely be edited into a face-slapping segment by the program crew!
He Xizhou is worthy of the title of "King of Force". He was not embarrassed to be laughed at by such people. He put one hand on the sign of "Young Hero Travel" and hooked the other hand on Ye Ying's shoulder. He was so calm that people wanted to pinch him to see how thick his skin was. "What's so funny? Everyone has their own time when they are young and frivolous. Anyway, I won't leave. I will choose this."
Everyone laughed wildly again, and Pan Li almost died of laughter: "Who chased you away? Choose whatever you want. Maybe the students behind you will thank you for giving up a center position!"
He cleared his throat and turned around: "No. 1, Mingyuechen, please choose your song!"
Ming Yuechen, wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, left the queue calmly.
The student looked at that elegant face and hissed softly: "I don't know why, but I always feel like Brother Ming is going to cause trouble... Fuck!!!"
Before he finished speaking, Ye Ying, who was watching Ming Yuechen walk away, curled her lips slightly and stretched out her hands to high-five him: "Happy second cooperation."
Ye Ying smiled: "Welcome, Brother Ming."
"Fuck..."
“What is going on!!”
"The top winners are all going to Young Heroes Tour? Don't they want a center position?!"
"This guy is actually in a group! He doesn't want to let others live!!"
However, it was too early for this person to speak.
Pan Li signaled Li Jingfei, who was ranked fourth, to start choosing. Li Jingfei turned around and glanced at Ye Ying.
Ye Ying looked at him intently, with sparkling eyes.
So Li Jingfei's eyes were also filled with a faint smile. He walked up to Ye Ying and clapped his hands, whispering, "Happy cooperation."
The students were almost going crazy, holding their heads and howling in disbelief. Qiu Shuang ran to the sign of "Young Hero Travel", hugged Ye Ying directly, and said with a smile: "This time I finally have the opportunity to cooperate with you! I have been waiting for a long time!"
One last spot left.
Ye Ying met Xu Qiongzhi's eyes, which were full of impatience, and smiled as she opened her palms towards him.
The next second, Xu Qiongzhi rushed out like a puppy that had escaped from a fence: "Ahhh Yingying!! I'm coming!!!"
He suddenly pounced on Ye Yinghuai, ruffling his curly hair in excitement: "Luckily I'm in the top six this time! Otherwise I wouldn't have the chance to be on the same team with you, woooooooo!"
He originally liked Chinese style, and had always hoped to collaborate with Ye Ying on stage. Unexpectedly, both of his wishes came true this time. He was so happy that he almost cried!
At this point, all six positions of "Shao Xia You" are fully staffed, becoming the first complete team in the public!
Everyone was completely stunned by this dramatic scene!
"Who am I? Where am I? Am I sleepwalking?"
"The top six go to one team together? What the hell, what the hell!?"
"What's the point of competing? Just pack up and go home, brothers!!"
"Even if the two strongest forces join forces, this won't happen!" a sad and angry voice said, "This wave, this wave is the return of the fucking gods!!"
